Daniel Lyrics by Corwin Zekley

The Pleasure of Doing You Wrong

2014

[Verse 1]
A coronet of dewdrops glistened in her hair
As the sun climbed the trees and I halted to stare
She looked so alone like I'd felt at the dance
I'd never seen Hana like this and I slipped from my trance
And she says...

[Chorus]
What do you see, why did you follow me Danny
Oh, I left him, I don't want you to come to me
Cause you cannot understand, you know nothing, your words are sand
So go back to her and leave me here and

[Verse 2]
She fell into my arms and she started to cry
We left hеr before dawn without evеn a goodbye
My hands grabbed her shoulders and I tried to pretend
I said we'll be all right, but she knew I couldn't comprehend
And she says...

[Chorus]
What do you see, why did you follow me Danny
Oh, I left him, I don't want you to come to me
If you cannot understand you are nothing, your words are sand
So go back to her and leave me here and

[Verse 3]
Hana ran from me into the forest
I followed her into the darkness
I called out to her but toward the river we both sped
And I was just a bit too slow and only her shoes remained by the riverbed
And to this day I still talk of her
She drowned in a river and I was never quite sure
But if I called out and if I reached for her hand
If I said thing's all right, but not all things can be so grand
And she says...

[Chorus]
What do you see, why did you follow me Danny
Oh, I left him, and I didn't want you to come to me
Cause you couldn't understand so I jumped in the river now my body's in the sand
So go back to her and forget about me
